Worked example as rendered: BA, step 2 = $57,200 a year, $4,766.67 a month spread over 12 months. Monthly and daily figures are arithmetic on the published annual cell, before any supplement, stipend or deduction.
Values are the district's Certified Combined Salary Schedule: the district base salary plus the State of Iowa Teacher Salary Supplement. The district also publishes a base-only 2026-27 certified schedule on the same page; for 2026-27 the base is $46,200 with an additional $8,800 from the Teacher Salary Supplement.
Step placement is based on years of completed teaching experience. All teachers with 0 to 2 years of experience are placed on step 2, so there is no step 1.
Extra duty pay is a separate percentage schedule and is not included here.
- Soft spot: The grid is ragged as published: BA ends at step 20, BA+15 at step 19, BA+30 at step 15, and the MA lanes run to step 26. Missing cells are null.
- Soft spot: The published MA, MA+15 and MA+30 lanes each dip at step 20 (for example MA $83,250 at step 19 then $82,965 at step 20) before rising again. Reproduced as published.
- Soft spot: The district publishes these grids as HTML lists inside an accordion on the HR page rather than as a dated PDF, so there is no separate document URL and no stated contract day count.
